Reclaiming the transcendent

the long version

God is commonly imagined as a supreme Being, acting from afar to influence events in the world. For many people today, this image of God has become unbelievable. Tom Gates presents process theology as another way of understanding God that is more congruent with a scientific worldview, as well as with the biblical witness and with the understanding of early Friends ... the author finds understanding of "God in process" to be deeply congruent with Quaker spirituality. -- Publisher's description.
